Support People and Partners

Floating support aims to support with any housing issues so that you are able to remain living independently, stay safe and feel settled in your home. The support is delivered on a weekly basis either in your home or, if appropriate, in a public place. Support is time-limited, and aims to improve your skills and confidence to enable you to be independent and empowered.
